DEFENCE INVESTMENT PLAN 2018
ROYAL CANADIAN NAVY AT A GLANCERESPONSIVE AGILE COMBAT-READY EFFECTIVE
Master Seaman Yevrag Haisom Evans is a proud
member of the Royal Canadian Navy’s Submarine
Force. He immigrated to Canada from Jamaica in
1991 and joined the navy in 2005 to “get the best of
all worlds”: education, full-time employment, travel,
friendships, and the opportunity to give back to his
community and country.
In December 2017, the first Arctic and Offshore Patrol
Ship (AOPS), the HMCS Harry DeWolf, took its full
shape as the third mega-block was joined to the first
two. Later that month, construction of the future AOPS,
the HMCS Max Bernays, began. Delivery of Canada’s
first AOPS is expected in 2019.
Major infrastructure upgrades are underway to
support Canada’s National Shipbuilding Strategy that
will deliver modern ships to the Royal Canadian Navy
over the next 30 years. The new A and B Jetty at CFB
Esquimalt in B.C., and Jetty NJ at CFB Halifax will
be home to several of these Canadian-built vessels,
including the new Arctic and Offshore Patrol Ships and
Joint Support Ships. Work is also underway to remove
contaminated sediments from areas of the Esquimalt
Harbour seabed where DND operates.
